Omphacite and Geodes Physical Properties

Omphacite and Geodes Chemical Formula

While comparing Omphacite and Geodes physical properties, the important data you should know is its chemical composition. Since chemical formula defines the molecular structure of the crystal, most of the physical properties like color, tenacity, solubility are governed by Omphacite and Geodes chemical formula.

Omphacite and Geodes Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Omphacite and Geodes Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Omphacite and Geodes Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Omphacite is Not Available whereas that of Geodes is Not Available.
